It�s nice man!
When i have scanned a watercolour picture i�m usually satisfied with adding more contrast to it, maybe you could try to decrease the levels of it too.
The probem i see is that the colours are pretty weak.

Hey I like it. Are you a Yoshitaka Amano fan, It reminds me a lot of his stuff.
On the scanning. there is no real answer. people in the pre press industry who operate scanners as a job might have some idea, but it's some really techy stuff. It also has to do with colour mangment. your screen might be off, I can't really tell without seeing the original. I've got a canoscan 630u, I got it becase it gives pretty good colour. but about everywhere else it's a dog It's also gonna depend on how the viewer's monitor is set up.
Colour managment is one of the biggest problems facing designers today, both in print, and on the web.
Sorry that I can't be of more help but it's a tricky question. |
